"Air Force One"



What can be said about this movie? Featuring Glenn Close as the Vice President and made in 1997, it was a bit ahead of its time. However, as with most action movies, some farfetchedness is required. Like why are all of the guys with guns the absolute most terrible shots in the entire world?

Also, our feeling with watching a film where Air Force One is hijacked by Russian zealots, brought up some questions about why did we and do we continue to give these terrorist guys ideas? I mean, why don't we make a film to show ways to hijack planes? That sounds like an AWESOME idea!! Right? Wrong.

Anyway, we still enjoyed the movie and I loved watching Gary Oldman as the lead Russian and hearing his accent.

Run Time: 125 minutes

Schellhardt Stars: 4 1/2

Join us again next time when our film will be "Airheads," which again we own, but have never watched.
